bitsCrunch is running an incentivized testnet and actively seeking participation from operators, projects, and users to join its community in helping test and develop the bitsCrunch protocol on all fronts, including: the network's security, operations, performance, and user experience.

The incentivized testnet has two critical goals:

1. Bootstrap and secure the network; and
2. Test network functionalities and get product feedback.

Task 4 will consolidate the activities of tasks 4, 5, 6, and 7. This consolidation aims to make the task more engaging and to encourage greater participation.

Visit https://bitscrunch.com and navigate to the protocol app to perform all activities.

Users must meet the following criteria to be eligible for Task 4 participation:

• Certain jurisdictional limitations apply (i.e., users must be non-U.S./Canada and OFAC-compliant), as outlined in the ‘Eligibility for Testnet’ section of bitsCrunch’s Terms and Conditions.
• Own a device with a basic internet connection (web browser, mobile browser not supported)
• Own a non-custodial Ethereum wallet connected to the unleashnfts.com platform (e.g., via Metamask) during testnet participation.; and
• For operator onboarding activity additional hardware will be required, check the docs when the activity becomes available.

Note: It is possible for participants to be eligible for one or more reward pools if they satisfy the required conditions set in the table above. The bitsCrunch team may introduce additional requirements to deter sybil attacks and incentivize the NFT ecosystem.

bitsCrunch is on a mission to elevate the global Web3 ecosystem by forging a safer, more transparent future for NFTs. The network aims to achieve this by offering unparalleled NFT data insights, forensic data, and development tools.

At the heart of the solution is the bitsCrunch Network - an AI-enhanced data network that delivers high-quality NFT analytics and forensic data. Accessible via APIs, the network promotes a community-driven ecosystem and encourages diverse application development.

• Forensic data: The bitsCrunch Network offers detailed forensic NFT data, enabling users to identify potential risks and fraudulent activities associated with specific items or collections, and maintain security.

• High-quality NFT analytics: Users are able to make informed decisions about their investment with in-depth analytics provided by the bitsCrunch Network. Enhanced with AI technology, the platform enables users to query accurate price estimations for NFT tokens, among other insights.

• Cross-platform compatibility: The bitsCrunch Network supports data from various blockchains and NFT marketplaces, providing users with a comprehensive and unified source of information.

Decentralizing the bitsCrunch network reinforces the robustness and trustworthiness of its NFT data and insights by enabling a permission less, censorship-resistant environment. The quality of analytics is dependent on the reliability of the underlying data - including how it’s acquired, stored, and processed. On bitsCrunch, all of this will be secured by a network of incentivized participants without any single party having control over the network - enabling users to access NFT data and insights that are bias-free.

To successfully transition to a decentralized model, the bitsCrunch Network must first ensure its infrastructure is robust, scalable, and capable of handling a variety of real-world scenarios. This involves rigorous testing, optimization, and community involvement to refine and enhance the network’s capabilities - enter the bitsCrunch testnet.
